What other products and services does Ambit Energy offer?

In addition to competitive energy rates the company also offers ways for customers to protect their homes from unexpected repairs from inclement weather and unexpected product failure or malfunction.

Ambit Surge Protection

No matter who supplies your electricity, one powerful lighting storm can cause serious damage to electronics, including TVs, gaming consoles or computers, or home appliances, such as dishwashers, dryers and refrigerators. Even if you have warranties on your electronics, they may not cover damage from a lightning strike.

Ambit Surge Protection can offer an inexpensive monthly plan to help you pay for the cost of repairs or replacement of these items.

AC/Heat Shield

As a homeowner, malfunctioning or damage to your heating and cooling system can cause more than just physical discomfort. It can also result in an expensive repair or replacement.
To protect your home, the company offers a monthly plan that can help cover the cost of repairs and seasonal tune ups. It's a smart way to protect your heating and cooling system at an affordable rate.

Ambit Energy and Sunrun solar

In spring 2015, Ambit Energy will begin offering enrollment for products through its new partnership with Sunrun solar. The new partnership will provide solar energy options to customers in California, New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts.
